Thanks for watching!
We all had 95% of these cards. Great era, and was so much fun to collect and trade. Call it Junk wax or whatever you want now. Who cares. Fun times and a ton of memories. Great video
It was great because we were kids ..would of been greater if the cards held some value 😂 the card company’s ripped us off mass producing cards
Love all your videos, but ones like these, where you go through random binders/totes/etc are my favorite.
Awesome, I’m glad you enjoy these videos! Hope to make more of them.
Looks like mostly junk from the junk years 1986-1995 where they just churned out each card in the millions and millions. BUT the graded ones of those years still sell real well! My dad has so many unopened boxes from 1987 to 1991. I have opened all of them except for about 15-20 boxes of mixed rack, and wax packs from 1989 topps. In the ones I have opened I just put Griffey aside as well as Randy Johnson and other notable rookies. About 10% of those are 10s. I have sent some of the ones I think are 10s (perfect record when guessing, and grading myself). I just started with my pokemon cards from 2014-2017. I have quite a few that are worth a couple thousand each that I think will be a PSA10. I have about 25 Pokemon XY Evolutions Charizard holo and about 10 or so reverse hollow that I would score a 10. That's about $50,000 right there as long as I don't flood the market. I will sell one or two a month. I noticed that the regular holos are worth more than the EX/GX cards.
So my first submission was 79 cards total to PSA. About 25 charizard holo, 10 reverse holo. Those fetch about $2000 to $2500 for holo. and $150-$250 for reverse holo. About 10 of each Clefairy, and Chansey holos that are most likely 10s. I didn't send off the reverse holos of those yet. Those are worth on average $500 to $800 each as long as I don't flood the market. The other 20 were cards like shattered ice Pikachu and non holo Raichu from XY. They are $100 to about $500 cards there. I am looking at getting about $70,000 for my first load. The turn around time is terrible (90-120 days but a few weeks after sending I noticed they are in grading stage so maybe I will get them back sooner).
For my baseball load I am personally grading before sending to be graded by PSA.... It's going to be awesome though, because we collected Leaf cards as well as normal Donruss. So I have a boat load of 1985 leaf, and 1987 leaf. 10 or so Clemens and 10 or so Puckett 1985 leaf which are worth a ton. Seen them sell on ebay for about $2500-$4000 each. So many cards. I had to buy 30 card shoebox that holds 800 cards. I have a box packed tight (with top loaders) of about 600 Randy Johnson topps, fleer (no marlboro sign, but I did get a bunch with the black box partially covering it) score and donruss. and Ken Griffey donruss/fleer/upper deck. Another 800 Maddux/Glavine/Smoltz rookies. I have about 10 or so of the fleer update Glavine card, and 10 or so Leaf 1987 Greg Maddux. As for Smoltz I have about 800 of him. Almost filled a shoebox.
It's taken me a few months to open all these boxes, and I still have quite a bit. If you would like to show me hit me up with an address and I will show ya pics. Or I can just make a video to show you. It's crazy all the stuff we collected as a kid. Oh I have quote a few 1958-1960 topps. Only 3 mickey Mantles though. All about PSA 5 or 6. With the old cards I am sending them to SGC. I have a couple Drysdale 1957 Rookies, and a Duke Snider second year in good shape. Mostly second tier stars though, they still fetch a lot if graded well though. I will make a video tomorrow and put on my channel. It's crazy all the stuff I found.
These bring back the memories of when I started collecting with my dad. He kept collecting and I stopped. Just started back up a couple of weeks ago.
This reminds me of my own collection. Spent thousands of dollars on cards in the late 80s / early 90s and now it's worth pennies on the dollar. The memories however are priceless.
I think we can all agree, regardless of how many of the same cards we get, getting a haul like that never gets old. Congrats.
I would have been so jealous of those binders and pages in 1992, who am I kidding I'm jealous today!! Great video!
Nice 87 Bonds cards!
You have the voice of a sportscaster. Especially the way you said “Todd Hundley” like Gary Thorne would.
Good value. I love sorting and going through collections.
THE PAST IS ALIVE RULES!!
Thanks Mac!
This brought back a lot of good memories from when I was a kid and collecting, I had pretty much everything you show in this video. Had such a good time watching and seeing these old sets again. You going to make me go to my parents and get up in the attic and pull down all my cards. Great video as usual and thanks for Keeping the Past Alive for us!!!
Glad it brought back some memories! Go grab those cards out of your parents attic!
@@thepastisalive going there for Sunday dinner, you know I will.
Phil Plantier or as my dad called him...Mr. Warning Track.
Great video and great cards. Heck of a pickup. I actually have that exact Black binder (at 15:58) from when I was collecting in the 90's. Such a fun video, thanks for sharing!!
That Leaf Griffey in the screw down is a nice one.
I never find these sales, you got some very good cards just from the binders for $ 300.00 dollars. The unopened wax or boxes will add to the value.
Takes us back to the good ol days
I remember the peak of the Gregg Jeffries craze, with my favorite dealer assuring me the value "will never go down." I bought about 20 loafs of bread, can't remember the brand, because Gregg's card was in them.
I don’t know if I’ve ever seen that one in particular, but I definitely remember the craze!
I sat through the whole video, lol.
that shoebox saved your purchase.
Between the 93 Topps set and the Griffey, that’s nearly half the value of what I paid. Now I have a nice chunk of sets for the store.
@@thepastisalive cool.
Great purchase- junk wax or not. Definitely worth 300$
The Griffey fetches 50$ easy on Ebay.
Lotta nice Bond rookies too.
The Bo jackson traded still is valuable.
Love the random Ho Jo rookie!
All around great buy. I'm jealous
Both Griffey cards are nice. 1993 Topps factory is nice with the Jeter rookie card and chance to get his gold rookie. Think you get 100 for set. Sold my sets like 1990 Score, 80' Donruss and Fleer update and those classic packs last year. Thought it might have been my stuff for a second.
Man epic rookie collection buddy! Awesome pick up! All those Bonds and Griffey’s have me drooling for sure lol. Well done buddy.
Thanks Scott!
Super cool pickup buddy. Hope business is going well!!
Liking that '93 Topps set. And all the Griffey rookies.
I got Jeff Hammond out the only time I faced him in an American Legion game way back in the day... good memory... this was a fun watch. So much from my late high school / early college collecting days
I would be happy with those binders. I could careless if those cards are worth anything now. It's the baseball players I loved watching growing up that made me fall in love with baseball.
What a nostalgic trip. This was the heyday of my collecting. I had the majority of those cards. The only baseball card that I wanted that eluded me back then was the 89 Upper Deck Griffey. Also, I still have my Mark Grace and Gregg Jefferies cards from back then as they were/are my favorites of all time.
You really didn't do bad at all. A lot of those singles are not worth the paper they're on. Some of the star rookies from the 80s like your Barry Bonds have had a recent surge in value. The Ken Griffey Jr rookies are always a plus especially the Upper Deck. That 1993 Topps factory set is a gem. There's a few more sets and cards too. So I'd say you did very well. I started collecting a few years before you did and yes I remember all of those can't miss prospects that I was buying as well.
I ended up going to the National today with Jeff Airtime and his wife. jeff picked a Big Boy football card and could not settle on a Big Boy baseball card. I however did score a box of 1990 topps wax for 35 bucks
Al Pedrique! 🤣🤣 Cool stuff. Nice looking Griffey. Thanks for sharing.
I’m 38 so this was right during the height of my childhood collecting lol
Great video, like always. Love your channel
Great video. Going through all of my old stuff now. Daunting task for sure.
When i was a kid, i thought i was going to be able to retire off of my baseball card collection(junk wax era only). Little did i know they have no value other than sentimental value of my childhood.
That was fun thanks. Nice tip on the Griffey Holo centering. 🐢
Holy smokes amazing Haul
Totally worth it for the Bonds rookies and the Griffey Upper Deck. I also like the sealed sets, those are always fun to pick up. I'm surprised there wasn't a Dennis Cook in a screw down case, I thought everyone had one in their collection.
You need to gift Erik that ‘91 Fleer Set! 🤣
My favorite was the dead rubberband in the bottom of the Keds shoebox. goodstuff
Fun fact....An old stale Ritz cracker is worth more then a Kevin Ritz card. Great stuff, fun to go through.
I saw a tom nevers score rookie...you lucky, lucky man
that is sweet man. You got lots of good stuff
Liked the Griifey and all the Bonds Rookies. Also thought the Thomas Minor leave card was really cool I have an Albert Pujols 2004 just Minors. Always wondered why they weren’t worth more.
It’s really weird that the oldest card was the Howard Johnson? How did no random older cards not get in that box?
I saw a Steve Martin card in there and instantly thought of a banjo playing SNL guy 😁 I would have definitely paid 300 for it, good value. 😎👊
I actually pulled the Mike Schmidt auto from Classic as a kid. I think it was out of 10,000 hand numbered. But my brother stole it and sold it. Lol
That’s an awesome pull! Still makes for a good story though. Those are tough
Also, if you're down to get rid of some Gregg Jefferies, Mark Grace or Wally Joyner cards, let me know. I"m down to try to get all of those cards again. There were a few I know I didn't ever have but would love to own now.
The Lou Brock and the Henderson underdeck I believe 1990 there where 3 or 4 of them in that shoe box the error and correct where in there the date is missing off of the base they are holding in the picture
You hooked me in when you said there was a Phil Plantier in a screw down, lol. Great vid 👍
😂 thanks Jeff!
I think you got a great deal on this collection. Thanks for sharing!
All good stuff, I have most of this as well. Can't seem to part with it. 4🤣
I would have bought it. Lots of junk wax gems. Games and magazines were a nice bonus. I'm not familiar with the Line Drive set. Never could get my hands on Traded cards as a kid either.
Great video, really enjoy seeing the mysteries hidden within.

I guess if you get enough junk it's worth $300. It would be impossible to break 8t down and sell for $300. The 89 Griffey UD is the only decent card. I'd have to see how it grades out at PSA
"91 Fleer, nobody's favorite".
I think we know someone who might disagree! Lol
You should do OK on these...did you hide the '87 Topps Bonds from Erik????
One of the better videos. Thank you👍🏼
Thanks Larry!
The 1989 UD Griffey in a PSA 9 would pay for 1/2 your purchase alone.
Really fun video. Sweet Griffey!
A lot of nice factory sets there! Just those are worth the $300!
those brock/henderson upper deck were mixed error and corrected cards, the error is the date is missing from the top of the base they are holding.
Any 1952 Micky Mantles in there? 😆
Just watched your brothers The National video. Glad he got his Holy Grail card! And nice beard BTW
😁 thanks Paul!
Bro….I don’t think you realized it but you told the story about the girls dad dying and that how you came across the baseball cards…..then you said “and there’s Mo Vaughn Dead Center of the page” 🥴🥴🥴
Looks like most of the ones that would have been missing from the boxes were in the binders, so that's a plus
Park Pittman's story behind that card; Divorce and Jack Daniels
It would have been worth it for the Expos cards for me.. There might be a few Jays or Canadians I don't have. Love the minor league cards. I don't know why but seeing the uniforms and the progression of them over the years is neat.
Good value. That was a fun one to watch
The 1993 Topps Set could be valuable if Jeter is there and it's sealed
Looks exactly like my collection. 🤣
So you barely paused on the big rookie cards like Bonds and Griffey (other than the 89 UD in the screw-down) because they are overproduced junk wax and hence not worth much?
Enjoyed watching the hunt, but not sure I would’ve paid $300 for that box…
33:08 monster noise blackout wipe gave me a heart attack as I was dozing off listening to the video.
😂
‘86 Fleer with the Mickey Hatcher card I’ve been wanting.
Love the video and good buy!!
I'm pretty poor but seriously considering getting back into collecting. Don't have a set of 88 Score you're willing to part with, by any chance? It was my favorite back in the day and I figure it's a good starting point.
You don’t have to be rich to collect or enjoy the hobby! I actually just got a set of 88 Score in this collection I believe.
@@thepastisalive Indeed sir that is true. And congrats on all the great pickups!
If you'd be interested in selling the set, let me know
@@karlmoles6530 sure thing, it’s all yours. Let me just go through it and make sure it’s complete.
@@thepastisalive Thank you very much.
Wow! lots of great rookies Bonds and Griffey's 🔥
looks like the missing update set cards are in the binders
You might have gold card in the 1993 topps set Derek jeter
Definitely would have grabbed that 300 out of my pocket so fast to buy them lol but as you said the griffey is the favorite my favorite baseball player and I just broke some 91 UD yesterday got a griffey and all the stars on that set even the bo Jackson error and jordan. I ordered the 90 ud box today
So im a garbage man for a living and someone threw out 5 shoe boxes stacked full of baseball cards and they are all 90s which seem to be worthless… are they better off in the trash? Any ideas would be great.
Most people would say yes...but it depends on what's there. There are some pretty valuable cards that can be found in the 90's but you just need to know what to look for. If I were you I would list them on Facebook Marketplace or take them to a local shop and see what happens. You may have at least a couple hundred bucks there, but it just all depends
Saw a few Griffey 90 Donruss. My question is, do you put any stock in the pink dots or no -.- periods ?
Did you notice the Griffey card in center of that page.(Topps)it may contain the red scar on the arm version.
Al Pedrique LMFAO
Well worth the $50 you paid. Nice
I definitely got that Edgar tino Martinez error in a collection i got awhile back
I so wish i could do this all the time!!! Congrats man!
where the jerome waltons at
And Dwight Smith. RIP.
That 1991 classic green set should have a Pedro Martinez "rookie card".
Terrific purchase!
Check that 89 upper deck Dale Murphy and see if it's reversed. That card is quite rare
maybe the missing cards from the update set boxes are in those pages.
I have that Mark Whiten. Good content but I think you paid full on what its worth
Where do you find these collections cause I wanna grow my collection
Screw downs…. The first SLAB 🌟
i love your videos but ken griffey jr cards are amazing
Junk wax galore my friend a lot more stuff for your shop
Great video
Well done
Sweet stuff Jon!
The hunt for Thomas nnof continues…
Good buy.
Jon's got the money laundering supply store right there!
I thought it was J.T. Slow :D
